DIAS is looking for Fellows and Professors
The Danish Institute for Advanced Study (DIAS) seeks to recruit 10 DIAS Professors and up to 10 DIAS Fellows. Each of SDU’s five faculties will welcome both Fellows and Professors, who will hold dual affiliations with DIAS and a faculty department, actively contributing to both.
The positions are joint positions at DIAS and a department at one of the five faculties at University of Southern Denmark (SDU). The candidate will thus have two affiliations—DIAS and the department—and is expected to contribute to both.
DIAS Professors
The new DIAS professorships target scholars with internationally recognised research profiles and excellent publication records. With exceptional skills in mentoring, teaching, outreach, and community-building, DIAS professors will be leading figures whose presence, engagement, and contributions will significantly impact the University of Southern Denmark. DIAS Professors will be integrated into DIAS’s community of distinguished Chairs.
DIAS Fellows
The highly coveted DIAS tenure track Fellow positions target early-career researchers with extraordinary potential and promising career trajectories. DIAS fellows are ambitious, innovative, and expansive-thinking scholars with international profiles and strong emerging records of research. In line with DIAS’s unique and ambitious research aims, DIAS Fellows, who are hired at the assistant professor level, have reduced teaching obligations compared to regular assistant professor positions at SDU. DIAS Fellows will be integrated into the Society of Fellows, a community by and for DIAS’s early-career researchers.
